Challenges on Ultraviolet Astronomy 2014 [PDF]
Astrophysics and Space Science, 2014 We are pleased to present this Special Issue of Astrophysics & Space Science; “Challenges on Ultraviolet Astronomy 2014”. This volume comes at a crucial time in Ultraviolet (UV) astronomy. The NASA/ESA programmes that created the community are reaching completion and future missions, apart from the World Space Observatory-Ultraviolet (WSOUV), are small-

Discovery of 20 UV-emitting SNRs in M31 with UVIT
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 We present the first catalog of supernova remnants (SNRs) in M31 that exhibit diffuse ultraviolet (UV) emission. UV images of M31 were obtained by the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) on the AstroSat satellite, and the list of SNRs was obtained from ...

An Ultraviolet Spectrophotometer for Satellite Astronomy [PDF]
Japanese Journal of Applied Physics, 1964 An astronomical Spectrophotometer is described which was designed for use on OSOB, the second U.S. Orbiting Solar Observatory. The Spectrophotometer is intended to analyze the ultraviolet emission from stars and nebulae. The entrance slit of the Spectrophotometer defines the field at the primary focus of a 6-inch modified Gregorian reflecting ...

The Colorado Ultraviolet Transit Experiment Mission Overview
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 Atmospheric escape is a fundamental process that affects the structure, composition, and evolution of many planets. The signatures of escape are detectable on close-in, gaseous exoplanets orbiting bright stars, owing to the high levels of extreme ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A Ti3C2@TiO2 heterostructure has been successfully fabricated by an in situ oxidation approach. The as‐fabricated Ti3C2@TiO2‐based photodetector exhibits narrow‐spectrum response with excellent stability. It also realizes sensitive Cr(VI) detection in a large concentration range of 10−12–10−6 M with an ultra‐low detection limit of 7.6 × 10−12 M ...

3. Ultraviolet Astronomy [PDF]
Transactions of the International Astronomical Union, 1985 During 1982-1984, progress in ultraviolet astronomy continued through extensive observations with the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE), continuing programs of sounding rocket and balloon flights, and through observations made from other orbital spacecraft, including the Space Shuttle and ASTRON.

Effect of Optical Illumination on Bubble Nanodomains
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Stable surface‐confined nanoscale bubble domains are created and manipulated in PMN‐PT single crystals. Under above‐bandgap illumination, these bubble nanodomains remain unchanged. However, upon illumination cessation, they rapidly expand to switch the entire crystal surface, due to the accumulation of a large reservoir of electrons at the crystal ...
